Ops Update

He sees a four-part process: 1) initial assessment, 2) initial remediation, 3) develop cybersecurity framework, 4) implement the framework. All of this is still in early stages.

TAC Nominations for 2018
Mark Scheible and Janemarie Duh shared a summary of the nominees and thoughts on how to organize the process. The summary sheet includes a tab for criteria, and a table that shows the terms of current TAC members and recommendations for terms for the new members.
Recommendation: consider only filling 5 positions this year (2018), 4 the following year (2019), and 4 the year after (2020). That would balance the term-end dates and maintain the number of members at 13 (the current max for TAC membership).
Recommendation: Consider diversity in a number of ways, including size of organization, diversity of organizations (not all IdP operators), and connections to the research community. .
Voting will be done in the same manner as last year. (AI) Dean will create a Google form for TAC to vote on potential members. (AI) Mark will contact those not attending today to point them at any resources that might help give them a sense of today’s discussion.
